Another Excerpt

Good morning. Happy Valentine's Day. I decided this time to post an excerpt from Violet's POV and see what you think.

Rating G -- Set-up -- Haverlane left to go back to London right after talking to Andrew Perry. Two days later, his mother, Violet's mother, Lady Penny (Haverlane's sister-in-law), and Violet's two youngest sisters show up at Fairhaven to make merry for Twelfth Night.

Bish -- Yes, Lady Penny is a very nice woman and thinks very highly of Violet. She plays behind-the-scenes to help Haverlane and Violet get together. Until she does the unthinkable and introduces Violet to another man to make Haverlane jealous. What will happen then, I wonder????

Oh, do you have any idea how long it's been since I read an historical romance? This was sooooo good; I felt I was there. You really nail dialogue. I want to go out and buy something romantic to read right now!

This is another wonderful sample of your writing. It is so in keeping with the period, and you paint Lady Violet so perfectly. You have such endearing characters--I'll bet you can draw a villain just as well...

About Me

Crazy hippie flower child mother of a twelve year old daughter having a mid-life crisis writing Regency romance novels, women's romantic fiction and taking a stab at detective/mystery thrillers. This is my writing blog where, if you dare to read, will find the incoherent babbling and sometimes blinding frustration of a woman who is longing to perfect the craft of penning a fabulous novel.
Hope you'll join me in the journey.
